In the white sailor suits for small,
boys the contrasting blue is dark If he
; a brunette, light if he is blonde.
Inc trousers are long and widen at
the ankles, and the sailor can il of
white serge. with a ribbon bearing the
name OF some man-o-war
Cialli dresses are also in great favor
Tor misses and small girls. Those
with cream white grounds strewn with
roses or with sprigs of bue, green or
bf"wn are made with BASQUE and
slight drapery. with velvet ribbon
trimming in rows around the skirt aud
as vest or revers.
Girls from eight TO fourteen wear
white i'annel or striped wool dres 4es
made with Norfolk jacket and kilt
plated skirt. The JACKIE are of fri;Ied
flannel with many rows of narrow
white braid. or else wide Hercules
braid for trimming. They are but
toned with Zig bullet pearl buttons.
bingham dresses are best liked for
the everyday wear of little girls. The
plain low waist with pointed
front and short pufrel sleevs, over a
white guimpe. is simple and pretty
way to make them. The striped
gingiams and those with large checks
are used in high colors and delicate
shades of pink. b'ue or lavender
The tendency in children's frocks is
toward longer waists than last sea-
son, making them down to the waist
line and sometimes below it. The
skirts are full, with hem and tucks.
or else deep embroidery below n cluster
Of tucks. or there may be two frills.
one plain and one of embroidery
Most dres 'es have sash OF the mate
rial sewed in the seams under the arms
and tied in Il large bow.
Mpusquetaire gloves should be worn
by ladies travelling any distance, as
the tightly buttoned English walking
glove becomes very uncomfortable and
frequently produces headache. For
short distances, however, where ap-
pearances may be consulted rather
than comfort, the mahogany colored
English glove of four buttons and
broad black stitchings down the back
are decidedly better style.
A remarkably pretty tea gown is
made of soft gold-colored "sunshinv."
a very fine, transparent quality of India
silk. with antique sleeves, shrred un-
slip of golden brown surah. with the
open fronts turned back with revers of
golden brown velvet. At one side is
knotted sash of the India silk with
psplum points. The sash is barred
with shades of yellow and veIgety
brown found in the heart of mari
god.
Another of these fawn-colored cloaks
had sort of trellis pattern in golden
brown silk. forming delicate woven
stripe down the front and on the col
lar, cuffs and edges of the pointed
hood. This wrap. while stylish. was
certainly effective rs a means of pro-
lection against dust, and the color
would not show easily any clinging
marks of the same, as 4 thorough
shaking after n dusty journey would
remove every thing clinging to it
Some of the new dust-cloaks for
summer wear are very handsome and
stylish. Those of dull soft tones of
green and blue. lined with pink and
lighter blue, are worn by women who
are perfect in every toilet detail
Among the really useful models lately
exhibited are those of Il dove-Tray OF
beige mohair. cashmere or armure
.tuffs. Another was of fawn-colored
canvas, extremely fine in quality and
Of close Newmarket shape in the back.
with semi-loose fronts buttoned to the
waist and tied with brown satin rib
